Omni GLH Turbo vs. Corvette Z06

[kertong]

You can polish a turd all you want, but at the end of the day, all you have is just a shiny piece of sh*t. :D With that said, damn, that is one impressive fast as sh*t turd!! Nice job, I have a C6 myself and I'm sure you'd clean the quarter mile with me. ;)

[TheGT5killer]

Is that an Omni GLH S? Or just a GLH? By the way, bit of trivia, GLH actually stands for "Goes Like Hell."

Look it up if you don't believe me, lol

[blaknoizee]

It sucks, because... even when American turbo cars beat American muscle people complain about boost. LMAO

[IRONSEAN7]

i remember the first time i saw a glh.. 1998 i was at new england dragway with my buddies, i was 17 and racing my 5 liter mustang which was stock at the time, turning 14 second times. this guy was there with an omni running low 13s. what a badass little sleeper

[simpsonfan13]

anyone ever wonder how all the best 80's performance vehicles were non-V8, small-displacement turbo powered?

Buick GN

Mustang SVO

Dodge Omni

[lockpickman]

@simpsonfan13 thats cuz of the smog era and the fuel shortages  that and turbo dodges kick ass!!!

[moparholic2]

Granny's toaster winning against the latest ''Macho bowtie Travolta Z06''..... Gimme a M... gimme a O... gimmy a P... gimme a A... gimme a R.... what do we have ???

[jims72]

@moparholic2 MOPAR! OR NO CAR!

[MrSinister55]

Kids these days wouldn't even know what that car is.....

[lockpickman]

@MrSinister55 i take offense to that. im 18 and ive had 3 TD's and that is an amazing omni

[MrSinister55]

@lockpickman doesn't change the fact that most kids still aren't going to know what it is.

[darcygoesfast]

serious ass whoppin'...he's the MFIC!

[scoutsniper95]

These cars are so awesome. I had a GLHS back in 89... it would consistently humiliate 5.0's and IROCS ... very little work done to it, the most extensive work done was the cat back exhaust and a port job... liked to eat clutches tho ..LOL

[moparholic2]

@scoutsniper95 You should have upgrated the clutch with a Mopar performance racing clutch or Centerforce Unit , I would pay to see the Iroc and Stang' owner's face !!! Lolllll !!!

[mikeserenar]

You can take anything and hop up the engine, trans, suspension, and tires and it will beat anything stock, its like a drag rage between a NASCAR Camry and a stock Camry, youre comparing apples to oranges.

[strang3majik]

hahaha...thats awesome.

[toastedtires]

I remember when that car was in my buddies back yard in Lemay. The guy let the car go to hell though. He ruined it by never getting it titled. Made all sorts of problems for the guy he sold it to. It was a cool car. Except for the little flame decals......maybe they just added to the character though. The rare parts on it were pretty damn cool though.

[875109725710]

I know, the omni just smoked that Vette, and they still argue? I mean really!? A Vette is a piece of shit at that year and below anyway! My Shelby Dodge Charger could beat one stock! They're truly sad cars.

[richjd630]

everyone on here blowin the omni...get a life. it wasn't stock, half of it was missing. the vette on the other hand, was stock, had ac, cruise, comfortable, and most of all is cooler than your junk yard bound omni!

[bigenginesismythang]

(glhs) goes like hell some more!!!!!!!

[toastedtires]

Is that car out of Missouri at all. I think a friend of mine may have owned that car before. Did that car have a side exit exhaust on the passengers side at all? Either way. That 's a mean Goes Like Hell.

[TyLiermann]

People getting mad because a boosted home tuned car beat a factory car. Get real. Turn a wrench, money doesn't buy everything.

[fsjfanatic]

Z06 110 grand omni glh an mods 11 grand the guys face as u pull 4 cars on him priceless

[Omnificent86]

@fsjfanatic zr1 may cost you 110k but not a zo6, the omni still whoops the corvettes ass in the 1/4 but try racing on a track and you will see where the corvette excels

[fsjfanatic]

@Omnificent86 but u c i dont care about goin fast in a corner i like pure speed an hard acceleration an if som1 can do that in a omni an whoop up on a vette 10 points for the lil dodge i have a cummins that iam currently running low 12s its 4x4 5 speed also fun i love sleepers an this is why this is fucken awesome

[Omnificent86]

@fsjfanatic Im all for 1/4 too even though I work for gm I dont see the vette as anything to special stock on the 1/4 now if someone brings one done up different story, what do you have done to the cummins low 12's is impressive.

[fsjfanatic]

@Omnificent86 twin turbo double disk clutch huge injectors tuned p pump fuel plate 5 inch exaust headstuds fired ringed head the ist gos on fer lil stuff i jus got meth injection should b another 100 horse

[Omnificent86]

@fsjfanatic nice!

[camirocz]

@fsjfanatic z06 is not 110 grand and this is the old c5 z06 not even 70 grand brand new.Besides that omni with all the mods is a lot more than 11 grand and it is fast but still an omni!

[875109725710]

@camirocz buddy it does not cost any where near that much money to make a GLHS fast. my GLH stock will run low 13s and beat nearly every thing on the road. quite being stupid. And i do know what im talking about because i own a glh and my dad owns a glhs 86 #76 made and won last man standing here in spokane.

[camirocz]

@875109725710 we use to race these omnis back in the 80s yes they were uick for what they were as in mid 15s but lets not exagerate the c6 z06 is a whole other car.

[875109725710]

@camirocz That's what you say until you race a Vette against a GLHS like my dads. Would blow the doors off a Vette./

[camirocz]

@875109725710 Your dads glh is not going to beat a c6 z06 on drag radials ,relax kid that vette is going to run low 11s even high tens at over 127 miles per hour and has a top speed of 198 mph stop dreaming ,go have a banana split at the dairy queen and then come back to the real world...Come on now.

[875109725710]

@camirocz You should pay attention. I said a GLHS, which is a shelby. And my dad's GLHS can do 130 at the traps, and is a 10second car. Not only is it a great drag car but It is a great handling car. Stop being a fan boy and start believing that a Vette isn't the worlds un-beatable car. I've grown up around many different types of cars, and I know something about them.

[camirocz]

@875109725710 I am not a fan boy i love gtrs z06,zr1, 911 turbo, i love them all but dont put a glhs in that class of cars they ran 14.75 stock all they had over the glh was the fact they were intercooled.You are the fan just bcause your dad has one its a good little car but thats all.

[875109725710]

@camirocz I never said my dads GLHS was stock. It beat every single car out of 81 at the dragstrip winning the trophy as Last Man Standing. And there were Vettes there. Sure the Vette would beat a couple. But not everyone! I do like Vettes. But I don't think that it would compare in performance like my dad's GLHS. But Vettes are a better Sunday driver.

[875109725710]

@camirocz Buddy, my dads "little glhs" has 500 wheel horse power and runs high 12s. it is far from stock my friend.what your saying would be true if we were talking about a stock glhs or glh, which we are not. and a glh runs about 14.75 stock and a glhs runs about high 13s. you would be surprised at what they can do. haha i bet you even like Japanese cars! what a fool you would be!

[HeadCase195]

@875109725710 You have a 500bhp Omni and can only run high 12's? Why not sell it to someone who can run a decent time?

[875109725710]

@HeadCase195 Oh, that was my stupid brother who knows very little about what he's saying. It doesn't have 500bhp just yet, but before it ran 324bhb, and that time ran low 12's... It's expected to run low 10's when it's completed. Just a Shelby Dodge Charger 1987 special edition, (which is what I have), will run 12's just by being ported. It also has a lighter build then the GLHS Omni, so I know for a fact that the GLH and GLHS can run 10's easily with the heavier build, with hardly anything done

[875109725710]

@HeadCase195 lol, my bad, it WILL have 500 wheel horse power xD, this comment was a while ago i know alot more now...

[HeadCase195]

@875109725710 Everyone WILL have alot of things. Talk is cheap. Don't claim anything unless you can back it up when you say it.

[875109725710]

@HeadCase195 lol, what you just said would make sense but, guess what, the engine is already set up and ready to be put into the car! I wouldn't say it WILL if i was speculating the future.

[richjd630]

@875109725710 your dads a geek too!

[875109725710]

@richjd630 How would you even know my dad? Calling him a geek anyway would be nothing but a compliment, considering he's not a low life, and has a life at that. While also being able to do the things he does with cars, and how other people who actually know there shit ask him for advice and help constantly, by many.

[richjd630]

@875109725710 but you still only have an omni...stop braggin about junk!

[licensedhobo]

that thing is a freaking rocket

[duanedragon2]

I'm pretty sure that corvette wasn't coasting to a mid-12. That is a seriously fast omni,

[funkdaddys420]

SICK BURN!

[Sodiumreactor]

LOL It looked like the Vette driver was asleep off the light, probably figured it would be an easy race, so why push the start. You can hear him realize hes getting his ass kicked and he guns it about 1/3 down the track. Too late!

[joshpotts]

Not to try to take anything away from that GLH (which is obviously not stock and appeared to be on drag slicks), but that 'Vette got an awful launch. Put slicks on the vette and it'd be a great race.

[shibbbbbbles]

Sweet car man!

[dilawer321]

WTF!!!!

[hd221813]

FWD FTW!

[kawana87]

No... FWD will always be FTL. This car is just really light, and has lots of power. Put the same power to weight ratio in a RWD car and it will always launch better.

[hd221813]

Maybe, but imho FWD will always be safer, and so overall better.

[kawana87]

@hd221813 sorry, but how is FWD any safer than RWD?

[hd221813]

Google "Are FWD cars overall superior to RWD cars?" and you'll find my full write-up.

[cow7ipper]

@hd221813 yea except for the torque steer, and if you spin you have nothing around a corner? lol

[yomonstruo]

can someone please explain me how to spot the limited edition glh`s¿?i mean the 500 that were made with 170hp.ive just learned they existed!

[spoolinomni]

all were black and said shelby on the side ground efx. all had a dash plaque with the car number. special wheels blah blah blah.

[sirlonghair]

GLH aka rabbit killer

[Rinconmaniac]

It's too bad more people didn't have the foresight of Dodge.These cars kicked some serious ass!Mind you they were sure hard on front end components and front tires.

[lcurtizz]

My pappy is making a GLH Clone, complete forged bottom end and all. Im stoked

[HEMI345375]

Goes. Like. Hell !!! GLH

[sirlonghair]

anyone know what GLH stands for got to love the dodge humor

[lcurtizz]

Great Little Handler that GOES LIKE HELL haha

[quacksacker]

I never had any problems out of my Reliant or Daytona. Fantastic, dependable little cars. My Reliant got my family home on a broke frame after being hit by Pontiac something or another. The Daytona could smoke just about anything.

[meangreen69Nova]

It doesn't even look like the Vette is trying....

[morecowbell69]

Hw as trying.......He was just up against a car that ran an 11.88

[IRONSEAN7]

i remember the first time i saw a GLH omni,, it was 10 years ago , i was up epping NH, running 14s with my stock 5.0, and there was this guy with an omni with one seat in it, he was the star of the show, runnin low 12s beatin up on Lt1s vettes, good times,, i wish i could find one of these but they are hard to find

[quacksacker]

Why doesn't Chrysler, or some after market company build more high performance parts for the sporty K-cars? And why isn't Chrysler still building them?

[jesseonly]

because most people just don't know whats truly awesome

[wav3form]

They most likely sell way more pickups to rednecks so that's where they spend their marketing dollars. Rednecks ruined this for us all.

[kemorc]

because the K-cars that are left are currently rusting in pieces. They weren't great cars, but they sure as heck helped pay off the shop that I used to work at.

[OneQuickFour]

Way to go Rocky! I've had this video on my computer for about 5 years now and never get tired of watching it.

Now tell your brother to get more vids of the Shadoh up!!!

[84L69TA]

That happens everytime a Chevy tries to pick on a Mopar

[sirlonghair]

dodge lightning V8 against chevy syclone V6 air to water intercooler and turbo dodge looses

[Pintac87]

Ford 454SS versus Mercedes M3 RS4, the Audi loses. Wait, what?

[lcurtizz]

Its a chevy 454SS, Ford Lightning, just incase you were serious haha

[sirlonghair]

lol had dodge on My mind and no the syclone is faster by far compaird to the 454ss typhoon's and the like are becoming verry rare chevy stoped making them because they wear faster than the vet miss theas rare gems GLH and all brother had a one I thought My rabitt was somthing till he got it he had another omny with a dual range standard tranny and got silly gas milage what great human transport

[MoPar7055]

Do you have anymore info on the car, like a cardomain page?

[butcherChrist]

Sweet, There's an '84 GLH for $500 on Minneapolis craigslist right now. I'd grab it myself if I didn't have so many projects already.

[rrpostalagain]

I had an 86 GKH Turbo and honestly wish I still did

[Taino187]

lmao @ "Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice"!!!

[inagod]

I worked for a dodge dealer as a line mechanic.Let me tell you,those cars were quick,severe torque steer,you better have the steering wheel straight when the boost comes on or its into the woods you go.

[lawlzman]

omni is the cheapest way to beat out

the expensive sports

[somesillysap]

yeah you'll get a user chick in your vette but you'll still pick up get an adrenalin loving chick in your 11 second junker

[bmxhellion]

funny how everyone is all pissed off at how a lil omni could beat a vette, haha. My advice, never underestimate somethin just because u drive around in daddy's vette.

[RustyJ]

@bmxhellion not my car, not my problem. That's what I always say.

[875109725710]

@bmxhellion People underestimate this car WAY to much. But hay dont you love to see the surprised look on there face when you kick there ass!?

[Magnuspire]

@bmxhellion They don't understand the value of a bad ass cast iron engine. :)

[GaiaOnline777]

LOL if base how much pussy you get from what car you own then you can't sweet talk a girl.

[red95isback]

i was wonderinw hen somebody was gonna make that point..lol

[dfrabens]

I owned an 85 GLH turbo and it was stock. It would never beat a zo6 but plenty of other cars. I used to pull up next to cars and blow them away! They would look down at the side skirts and read GLH TURBO and go WTF is that thing. I miss that car, Would beat 99% percent of these punks with riced up cheese boxes with fart can mufflers I see riding around. It had 200k on it and the never rebuilt the engine or turbo when I sold it. Oh yea I never had any problem getting laid!

[duster92]

A lot of people discount the Shelby Mopar cars, but few remember that the 1986 GLHS beat the classic Shelby GT350 on the track. In 1986, Chrysler had the Super 60 package which put out 300HP out of a 4 cylinder. And these cars were LIGHT.

"The name of the game in the 60s was power to weight..and today it's STILL power to weight."

-Carroll Shelby

[mopar43v3r]

ur right on everything but ive done tons of research on these cars, and ive never ever heard of a super 60 package

[electricshockproof]

Well it was the real thing available through Mopar Performance. google it.

[mopar43v3r]

i haven't researched much on the performance parts but i found it, thnx for info

[Nmemonicus]

Just because some POS can beat it doesnt mean its shit look at those stupid little hayabusa powered kit cars that are so fast  just cause they can win a race doesnt mean there a better car and sure as hell you wont pick up alot babes driving a GLH as compared to a Vette ANY Vette

[700whpfocus]

what suspension mods does the omni have? no wheel hop noticed.........besides slicks!

[bka2312]

exactly what it stands for GLH (Goes like hell)!! lol mopar for life!

[kryss119]

POS 1 $60k Z06 0

I love it when people take a crap car and put some elbow grease into it and make it go fast! Good Job!!

[01Z06guy]

Z06 was $48,500-$52,000 new, not $60k.

[sylverjim]

vetts are shit. GM crap that was made cheap. the engine is ok, but cheap made. don't hate because of the "real" price. Still alot of money for a pos like the omni that beat it..... I work for GM and vettes are not all that..

[01Z06guy]

Sure. Whatever you have to say to feel better about not having one. 95% chance my Z06 is superior in every way to whatever you drive. Trust me, I've heard all the hater bullshit you can possibly come up with already on youtube. I know better. It's generally is the result of jelousy.

[sylverjim]

Actually I test drive them all day and I have three of them...1990 (7800miles), 2006 (2345miles), 2007supercharged version (4miles), so do hate....I only get the vettes for a collection. I have 24 cars total, I work in the design team that designed GMs cars, and I did work on the z06, have fun...with the cheap plastic parts from the design team and I

[01Z06guy]

Haha!! Yeah right. As if anybody believes you would go on youtube videos and randomly insults cars you own and design.  Sure. BTW, there is no 2007 supercharged version. Keep that for future reference next time you make up a story on the internet, you won't look as stupid.

[sylverjim]

Gm did not make a supercharged version, but the kennebell supercharger was an addition not installed from the factory. I insult the vette, but hey we are only allowed to design on paper and what GM wants to build to the public is what you have..and I laugh that an Omni can beat it...Don't have cuz I have a betterone. There will be always be a better one, even than mine

[dhlutra]

Hold on now! That little GLH is far from a crap car some ones worked on. I read in hemmings muscle machines that the GLH Turbo had a hp to weight ratio of like 13.5 lbs to the hp stock. Still I understand your point on enjoying how an average car can handle a rich mans sports car with the right mods and driver.

[jmoody66]

They better save some of that elbow grease cuz he that POS may have beaten the Z BUT he will need to elbow grease for jackn off cuz you dont get pussy in a ugly ass car like that. Ill take puss over ugly old ride any day.

[Polybun]

LOL 11.88 :D

yay for the infamous super 60 kit!

[artimishoke]

Long live the turbo dodge

[chrisgb22]

I have a 1990 horizon w/ lots of omni parts and im doin the same thang to my car

[valiant1968]

Corvette had it's ass handed to it!

[Dhokey19]

thats awesome those things rock

[Nazikiller666]

That was Beautiful man...I gotta have one

[furious383]

Just plain awesome. I love Omnis.

[451dart]

gotta love it!!!!!

[ghbbb123]

Yes! the ulitmate sleeper. big props to the person who built up that omni

[theskeptic1031]

I miss my old Omni GLH Turbo, but my SRT-4 consoles me every day. No, the GLH-T shown is not mine..

[SRT8HEMI]

Truth be told! Amen, and thank you fellow Omni owner.

[Raymo853]

Carol Shelby would be proud
